A painting like Francis Bacon’s “1946” is not your typical source of conventional wedding inspiration. While the great artist’s works typically touch on themes of anguish and distress, and are what some would call disturbing in nature, this did not stop Gretchen Culver of Rocket Science Weddings and Events from finding beauty in the darkness. As the creative designer of this styled shoot said, “it is easy to use beautiful art to inspire beautiful design. I wanted to flex my creative muscle." And flex this muscle, she certainly did.

Cici and Clement travelled to Iceland with Life Studios Inc. for a high fashion meets adventure shoot that captured their love in the extraordinary setting of dreamy moonscapes, glacier caves, and volcanic cliffs. This was a unique, customized voyage through the heart of Iceland, led by a seasoned local tour guide from Extreme Iceland. The team travelled in a 10-foot-high SuperJeep through gale-force winds, crashing hail and cruel terrain to the destinations that would bring together the world of luxury with the untamed wilderness.

We’re thrilled to announce that we’re partnering with Life Studios Inc. to give away a two hour-long engagement shoot session in Vancouver. Head over to our Instagram account (@WedLuxe) today for your first chance to enter and find out more!
